these descriptions are _NOT_ mutually incompatible.
-o to 'mount' has different meaning that '-o' to mount_nfs.
to 'mount', you say -o, then _all_ of the options you want, some of
which are mount_nfs specific and some of which are not.
to mount_nfs, you specify the mount_nfs specific options with flags,
and those which aren't mount-program-specific with -o.

these are no longer specified as words.
for instance, to mount the NFS file system foo.host:/bar on /usr/bar
read-only, with read- and write-sizes of 4096, you could do either of
the following:
mount -t nfs -o ro,-r=4096,-w=4096 foo.host:/bar /usr/bar
mount_nfs -o ro -r 4096 -w 4096 foo.host:/bar /usr/bar
there's actually an example in the mount(8) man page that elucidates
this:
Any additional options specific to a filesystem type that is not
one of the internally known types (see the -t option) may be
passed as a comma separated list; these options are distinguished
by a leading ``-'' (dash). Options that take a value are speci-
fied using the syntax -option=value. For example, the mount com-
mand:
mount -t mfs -o nosuid,-N,-s=4000 /dev/dk0b /tmp
causes mount to execute the equivalent of:
/sbin/mount_mfs -o nosuid -N -s 4000 /dev/dk0b /tmp
